Default Sports Mode

Recently I noticed when I move the gear selection into Sports Mode the dash does not change to red settings as it did previously. Sports mode is definitely working as I can feel the increase in revs and power. Any ideas,? There is only a choice of selecting gradient mode under general settings that dulls the display.

Do you mean "Sport" mode as in turning the gear selector to S, or "Dynamic" mode engaged by pressing the chequered flag button?

The dash in my XES (I'm aware a different model is not a good comparison) only goes red when I select Dynamic mode - putting the gearbox into Sport mode while leaving the driving mode in normal doesn't change the dash colour.

I agree Dangoesfast: Dynamic mode (checkered flag button) turns dash red. (Winter mode blue)
Turning gear selector to S-mode, don´t change colour shcene.

My apologies you are correct it is the Dynamic mode that changes the display red. Thanks for the feedback

new guy chiming in. day 3 with my new to me 17 xjl, I think the Sport mode changes your tach and speedometer to be tach in center with speedo to the left, but as above stated, the winter/dynamic changes the colors.
